Christmas Day in Jacksonville!

Hooray! I'm almost caught up on the year of blogging! We'll see how well I keep up in 2008. We had a wonderful, relaxing Christmas break this year. Our first ever away from the rest of our family in Utah. After moving this past summer, and now that we've got three kids to tote around, we decided another trip across the country was just too much this year. We've had a great time. It's been very restful. We drove down to Orlando to go to Sea World again (got to get use of that pass!) and saw Kurt and Amanda who were there with Kurt's family. They were kind enough to let us intrude on half a day of their vacation to visit since I probably won't get to see them until next Christmas. We then drove down to Fort Lauderdale and stayed in Jen and Doug's place so we could relax, visit friends, and tear down the office! Yes, the office Russ built onto the condo had to go since post-hurricane construction is finally about to start. Lots of work, but still a nice trip. Then we got to come home to an entire week of NOTHING! That's rare, so we've enjoyed it. We also moved Mason's crib into the boys room, so he's loving being part of the group. Here are a couple of Christmas shots - one of the middle of the night, and then Christmas morning including one of Mason stuffing his face with cinnamon bread. Happy holidays!!

Happy New Year! I am so glad you have a blog so I can look at those 3 little cuties any time! It looks like you had a wonderful Christmas. I was so sad to know that you were down in South Florida when we were away. We want to make a trip up to see you when it gets a little warmer. Thanks again for thinking of me on my Birthday!
